Modification to the seat structure
can adversely affect the seat
position sensor and cause the air
bag to deploy at a different level
than should be provided.
Failure to properly wear safety
belts can increase the risk or
severity of injury by causing the
air bags to deploy at a different
level than should be provided.
Do not place any objects under-

could damage the seat position

Do not place any objects that may

there is no malfunction of the SRS
air bag system, because the SRS air
bag warning light is connected with
the seat position sensor. If the SRS
air bag warning light does not illu-
minate when the ignition key is
turned to the "ON" position, if it
remains illuminated after blinking
for approximately 6 seconds, or if it
illuminates while the vehicle is
being driven, have an authorized
Kia dealer inspect the seat position
sensor and the advanced SRS air
bag system as soon as possible.
According to the impact severity, seating
position (only driver) and safety belt
usage,
the
SRSCM
(SRS
Control
Module) controls the air bag inflation.
Failure to properly wear safety belts
can increase the risk or severity of
injury in an accident.
Additionally, your SRS is equipped with
an occupant classification system in the
front passenger’s seat. The occupant
classification system detects the pres-
ence of a passenger in the front passen-
ger’s seat and will turn off the front pas-
senger’s air bag under certain conditions.
